    Hi all,

    I have a private mp server with friends, launched with 1.5 version and we have a curious problem with POI's.

    We use to farm any POI on the starter planet, but each day, they came back, fully restored ! So it's a kind of infinite drops.
    Someone has that problem ? It's normal ?

    The other thing is that we can't start any mission with the PDA. We've selected a starter planet with missions ON by the way.

    Thanks for any answer !

    :)

    POI respawn is a setting that you can configure for your server. If it is on, the POIs will respawn.

    For the missions, it depends on what scenario you are using, as some do not include the missions.

    No problem, in the save for your server game look for the "gameoptions.yaml" and in there you can set "RegeneratePOIs: False" under "ValidFor: [ MP, Survival ]". You can look at "[Drive Letter]:\Steam\SteamApps\common\Empyrion - Galactic Survival\Content\Scenarios\Default Multiplayer" in there is an example of the game options file. Make sure you shut down the server, make the change then restart the server, if you did it right then POIs should now be set to not respawn. Hope this helps.

    Thanks again for the answer ! I did it and it worked very well.

    Another thing : I can't spawn bp everywhere, must be in a base. I've changed that :
    UndergroundBpSpawn: Always

    But it doesn't work..

    Any suggestion ?

    Welcome and once again in the gameoptions.yaml look at changing GroundedStructureSpawn: true to false. This affects whether or not blueprints must be placed on a base or capital vessel when being spawned. Hope that helps.

    Thanks again !

    I have that :
    # GroundedStructureSpawn: True # default value

    I'll try to change to that :
    GroundedStructureSpawn: False # default value

    Without the # at the beginning :)

    Thx !

    Look into using Empyrion Admin Helper (EAH) as it has all these settings configurable.

    I do agree with what Ravien_ff said, I used to just make the changes to the .yaml files as necessary then switched to using EAH. A bit daunting at first but so much easier to do/use then editing the .yaml files and possibly making mistakes.

    And Thanks again !! It works !

    Actually i dont want to make more changes. Just want to see back what i did in last version. I took a look at EAH but it's, i think, to complete for what i really need.

    Next step is to put back scenario and it's done.

    Thx again, you rock ! :)
